Synopsis As Introduced
Amends the Developmental Disability and Mental Disability Services Act. Provides that the Department of Human Services shall establish family resource centers throughout this State to provide counseling and mental health services to families who are indigent based on any behavior or mental health condition as determined by Department rule. Provides that the Department shall employ or contract with psychiatrists, clinical psychologists, clinical social workers, and licensed marriage and family therapists to provide those services.

 Fiscal Note (Dept. of Human Services)
 HB 4918 amends the Developmental Disability and Mental Disability Services Act. The bill requires the Department of Human Services to establish family resource centers throughout the State to provide counseling and mental health services to indigent populations based on any behavior or mental health conditions as determined by Department rule. As written, family resource centers appear to be duplicative of current community based mental health services. The Department of Human Services spending for community mental health based services is approximately $260M annually. If the family resource centers were in addition to the current state investment in community mental health services, the cost could be significant.
